Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

PodBill Just what I expected

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

rbsteury We (my wife, daughter, son-in-law and I) saw this at it's premiere at the Wisconsin Film Festival Saturday night. We all politically agree with the film and thought it was great that the film was shot in Madison. And we were all very disappointed in the product.The cinematography was competent and the acting ranged from OK to good. But the pacing and plot... oh, my. To say this is the slooooooowest movie we saw at the festival underrates how it moves at a snail's pace, portraying the obvious and the simplistic over and over and over again and then coming to a resolution (if it does... the filmmakers apparently think so) that is so clichéd and obvious as to make you doubt the sincerity in which it was made.Some of us actually found ourselves nodding off during the film… it is just that stultifying. Just how many pained looks (lasting what seemed like minutes each, over and over again) on the face of our protagonist (who was not a soldier placed in a situation where he was expected to kill/maim someone... he was instead a journalist writing about the war) can one endure without becoming completely frustrated? I know it was made with good intentions, but this script and it's portrayal is truly amateurish. I would not recommend it to anyone unless they just want to see some beautiful shots of the Madison area. There were not nearly enough of those to make this film worthwhile for my family.
